A recent purchase from a Kaplan auction.

R P Young served in the DLI from 29 Sep 99 to 31 May 1902. While most of the DLI received Transvaal and RoL, quite a number received this combination, Natal and Transvaal.

His QSA is verified on WO100/260p206.

Great addition to your collection, David ! LOL, I also recently received a couple of additions [RPR] to my collection from Kaplans.

Cheers,

Mark

Mark,

That's good news. I had bid on 5 QSAs but only one bid was successful.

Have you seen the range of QSAs in the latest Spink catalogue for their auction on 12th April?

Best wishes

Young's medal was once in my collection. It has since travelled far. I am pleased that it has found a good home!

Regards
Brett

It's good to see it has a good pedigree, Brett.

Can I ask if you found anything more about him?

Kind regards
David

David, Lol, I daren't look. The postman brought me a most wonderful package today. I'm going to have to confine myself to researching that for the next month or two or my wife...Actually, I can't moan. She's been really understanding recent needs.

Cheers,

Mark
